#Cloud Cache

Cloud cache is a library for sharing memory across compute nodes. It utilizes a simpler version of the memcached protocol. While currently running on the Linux kernel, the goal is to implement this on Composite, a component-based operating system.

This code is under development at this time and unstable. I'll add more information once this is closer to deployment.

There are three commands currently working: GET, SET, DELETE. They expect the follow formats:

GET: get "key"

SET: sets "key" "flags" "bytes" \r\n

"data block"\r\n

DELETE: delete "key"

The * means 1 or more keys are acceptable.

Possible error return values:

"ERROR\r\n": client sent a nonexistent command name

"CLIENT_ERROR "error"\r\n": Something wrong on the client side - wrong number of arguments for example

"SERVER_ERROR "error"\r\n":

"error" indicates some sort of human readable error message.

More info and expected server responses can be found in the full memcached protocol description.
